520 |a An important and timely contribution to international relations and political science, this is the first general analysis of deterrence since the end of the Cold War. Using non-cooperative game theory, the authors offer a new approach to deterrence - Perfect Deterrence Theory - which they apply unilateral and mutual direct-deterrence relationships, and to extended-deterrence relationships supported by deployment policies such as Massive Retaliation and Flexible Responses. The authors focus on the relationship among capability, preferences, credibility, and outcomes to achieve a new understanding of threats and responses. With the application of deterrence theory on diverse social settings, and historical examples from before, during, and after the Cold War, this book provides a welcome new examination of the subject.
